My Take
Wynonna Judd moves me in a way few singers do. Rising from Ashland, Kentucky, she conquered country music in the 1980s alongside her mother Naomi as The Judds, then carved out one of the most awarded careers in the genre with nineteen number-one singles. What I treasure is that voice, that big, smoky, lived-in instrument that seems to hold every joy and ache she has known. Stepping out from a beloved mother-daughter duo could not have been easy, and I sense the struggle behind her solo path. Yet she keeps singing, and in that persistence I hear the genuine soul of a true artist.
